is the supercomputer for everyone, powering the world’s most complex computation to build the Verifiable Internet is a pioneering zero-knowledge virtual machine (zkVM) designed to enable verifiable computing at scale. Developed to support Rust programs, the Nexus zkVM uses advanced cryptographic techniques to generate highly efficient, incrementally verifiable computations (IVC). This open-source, modular, and extensible system optimizes prover performance and supports custom computations. Nexus aims to transform digital interactions by prioritizing correctness, transparency, and security, making large-scale verifiable computing accessible and efficient.
The supercomputer for everyone needs you! The testnet opens at 9:00 am Pacific on December 9, 2024, and closes at 9:00 am Pacific on December 13, 2024.
Supercomputer, Testnet I -- now live Over 10,000 users worldwide, 60 mins after launch. Even more active right now. The Internet needs us.

Next Set up your BIOS Virtual Machine Platform Windows feature and ensure virtualization
Access BIOS settings:
Restart your computer and press the key to enter BIOS settings (usually F2, F12, or Del).
Navigate to the “Advanced” or “Performance” tab and look for options related to virtualization (e.g., “Virtualization Technology” or “VT-x”).
Enable virtualization technology.
Save changes and exit BIOS settings.
Enable AMD Virtual Machine Platform Windows feature:
Press the Windows key + R to open the Run dialog box.
Type appwiz.cpl
and press Enter to open the Turn Windows features on or off window.
Scroll down and check the box next to “Virtual Machine Platform” (if available).
Click OK to save changes.
Restart your computer: After enabling the AMD Virtual Machine Platform Windows feature, restart your computer to ensure the changes take effect.
Verify virtualization is enabled:
Press the Windows key + R to open the Run dialog box.
Type msinfo32
and press Enter to open System Information.
In the System Summary section, look for “Virtualization” under “Hardware Resources.” It should be enabled.
Additional Tips
Ensure you have a 64-bit version of Windows installed, as virtualization is not supported on 32-bit versions.
If you’re using a laptop, check your manufacturer’s documentation for specific instructions on enabling virtualization in the BIOS.
If you’re still having issues, try checking for BIOS updates or contacting your system manufacturer for assistance.
Check BIOS Settings:
Restart your PC and enter the BIOS setup (usually by pressing F2, F12, or Del).
Navigate to the “Advanced” or “CPU” tab.
Look for “Intel Virtualization Technology” (VT-x) or “Virtualization” and ensure it is enabled.
Save changes and exit the BIOS setup.
Verify Virtualization Support:
For Intel CPUs, use the Intel Processor Identification Utility (PID Utility) to check if VT-x is supported.
Download and install the utility from Intel’s website.
Run the utility and check the “CPU Technologies” tab for a tick-mark next to “Intel Virtualization Technology”.
Additional Steps for Azure Virtual Machines:
If you’re using an Azure Virtual Machine, ensure it is created with Standard security.
Verify that Trusted Launch is disabled, as nested virtualization is not supported on Azure VMs.
Ensuring Virtualization
Step 1: Access Windows Features:
Press the Windows key + R to open the Run dialog box.
Type optionalfeatures
and press Enter.
This will open the “Turn Windows features on or off” window.
Step 2: Locate Virtual Machine Platform:
Scroll down the list of features and find “Virtual Machine Platform”.
If you don’t see it, ensure you have the latest Windows updates installed.
Open Windows Search "Windows PowerShell" Right click & Run as Administration
